Hi, I do understand how frustrating it can be when your receiver cannot acquire a satellite signal and I would be happy to help. Please try and unplug the receiver for 10 seconds and then allow it to reboot. If you still have no signal, please check the cables from where the satellite cable comes into the room all the way up to the reciever and besure all the connections are hand tight. If you are still having an issue, please email me directly. Thank you!
